Pros

The people are lovely and the offices are very nice

Cons

Lack of communication between teams or even within teams Poor salary No career progression Management did not care about staff so when people left the team new staff weren’t hired, instead their work was distributed amongst those who remained Month end takes 3 weeks to complete so leaves no time to improve processes so everything is a mess When new brands are acquired (which is often), their finance processes are not integrated or communicated properly down the chain so things get lost easily
